Canary Islands - the main attractions of Tenerife

Everything is just the most ...

For the convenience of travel we offer a map. However, this is not just a map, but the most detailed map of all the "most delicious" sights of the island. As you can see, there are a total of 18 positions on the map. Under each of them hides the breathtaking eye and heart of Tenerife attractions.

Number 1 "Teide - active volcano and national park"

It is the highest point in Spain, 3.718 m. Above sea level. The aborigines called him Echide, which means hell or the devil. They believed that it was through him that the way to the evil demon of Guyot was made.

Long ago, a mean demon stole the Sun and hid with him in the crater of this volcano. Under cover of night, his evil sons stole people there, cattle, and trampled crops. The god Achaman became angry and returned the Sun to the people, and the demon himself was imprisoned in his own crater.Now he is forever locked in the bowels of a volcano, but occasionally reminds of its existence, sprinkling ashes and hot lava on the area. These sights attract many people thanks to such legends.

Number 2 "Loro Park - the most important zoo"

The map of this park is shown in the photo. This is a detailed map of the most successful commercial entertainment project that stores the Canary Islands. Created the park Wolfgang Kiesling. Translated from the Spanish "loro" - a parrot. Therefore, passing the routes on the map, you will enjoy the biggest “Papugaysky”, as the kids say, the park.

Here you and your children will be pleased not only by parrots, but also by carps, which can be fed with bread. For 1 euro you will get a wonderful, poisonous yellow baseball cap, and for 8 euro you will make any colorful photo. The finished photo will be waiting for you at the exit.

On your way also to meet the open-air cage which is inhabited by gorillas, and very near - penguins and fur seals.Leaving the park, you can not pass by the aquarium, where bloodthirsty sharks swim above their heads.

Number 3 "Park of Eagles"

The photo shows the map again - this is a detailed map of the Eagles Park.

The visit card of the park was, is and will remain the eagles from the Teide volcano. That is what is called a show.

Birds swoop over the heads of screaming spectators, walk on their legs and sit on their heads. It also happens that the birds fly away to layoff and do not always have time to close the show. However, they are always replaced by “bukho” or Spanish owls. The park is also rich in attractions with parrots, toucans, marabou and other winged exotics.

There are always ready to pamper the tourist:

show with birds of prey;

show with exotic birds;

show with sea lions.

Each performance lasts no more than 30 minutes.

At your service for only 4 euros - descent in a sleigh on an eight-meter chute. Bobsleigh - another 4 euros. To save on ice cream, buy a double ticket for two parks at once.

Number 4 "Siam Park - not just aqua attractions"

As you can see, the sights in Tenerife grow on every corner, like mushrooms after a warm rain. One of them is Siam Park. Take a look at the photo.We do not recommend to come here with children. All rides are designed for an adult audience and are dangerous for them.
